G. Bruce Doern and Robert Johnson, eds., Studies in Comparative Political
Economy and Public Policy; Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 2006, xi,
372.The first stated purpose of this edited collection is to
"clarify conceptually the nature, causes, and dynamics of regulatory
governance in, or affecting, Canada" in a world where the
international, federal, provincial and local spheres are
"interacting, reinforcing and colliding." The second is to
"contribute practically to the debate on what kinds of principles
and institutional approaches and changes can lessen the problems of
multilevel regulatory governance" (3).

Abstract Rules are central to the constitutional political economy (CPE) approach. On this approach, rules, of a variety of types and forms, are necessary for the emergence of a political and social order, so that all genuine political order is rule-based. The central role of rules within the CPE approach is examined starting from an explicit definitional discussion of the concept of a rule and including discussion of the nature of rule-following behavior, the supply of rules, and rule enforcement.

The provisions of the new RF Foreign Policy Concept are compared both with the previous versions of this document (adopted in 2013 and 2016) and with the effective National Security Strategy. Structural, normative, and strategic novelties are discussed. They determine not only Russia's foreign policy priorities in the changing world order but also substantiate, ideologically and geopolitically, its commitment to these priorities. A clear statement of national interests, and foreign policy goals and objectives provide a clearer and more logical framework for Russia's further actions in the international arena.
